I picked up a checklist from a workshop regarding things to observe about
children as they are working. It fit perfectly with the assessment video.
Here are the items listed on the checklist:
1. Shows curiosity about the topic
2. Gives reasoning for predictions
3. Predictions get more accurate over time
4. Follows activity steps
5. Uses standard and non-standard measuring tools to gather information
6. Uses detail in writing and/ or drawing
7. Writing, drawing, and/or discussion shows grasp of science vocabulary
8. Exchanges information with others
9. Works cooperatively with others
10. Shows understanding of key concepts
You can use these items as one means of gathering information about a
child's progress. You can either check the items or code them as follows:
+ = doing well
- = needs improvement
n/o = not observed at this time
